About Ariana Luisa
Ariana Luisa is a professionally accredited counsellor registered with the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS), offering humanistic therapy for adults who want to explore their inner world and life relationships. She practices open-ended, explorative work that helps people examine their feelings, memories, unconscious patterns, and interpersonal dynamics to better understand how these parts combine to shape identity and future choices. Ariana creates a non-judgmental and accepting space where clients are invited to lead the pace and content of sessions while she listens with empathy and curiosity.
Her practice addresses a wide range of concerns including stress and anxiety, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and family difficulties, issues with self-esteem and body image, eating-related concerns, parenting and fatherhood matters, career questions, and coping with life changes. Sessions are offered by video and live chat, with messaging available between appointments, and she can adapt session length to individual needs with 30 or 45 minute options.
Ariana emphasizes collaboration rather than directive advice, supporting people to discover their own solutions while navigating sometimes uncomfortable or challenging emotions. She holds a basic DBS check and is registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO). For urgent mental health crises she asks that people contact NHS 111 (option 2) or dial 999, as she does not provide an emergency service. Ariana is not currently accepting new clients.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathetic environment where the client’s experience and choices guide the work. This approach helps people build self-awareness and confidence, and is often useful for issues like self-esteem, relationship decisions, and major life changes.
Psychodynamic Therapy explores how past experiences, memories, and unconscious patterns influence current feelings and relationships. It can be helpful for people who want to understand recurring emotional themes, attachment issues, or long-standing interpersonal difficulties.
Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on gently addressing the impact of traumatic events and helping individuals develop coping strategies to reduce the ongoing effects of trauma. This approach is applied carefully and paced according to the person’s readiness.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Ariana works collaboratively with clients and registered professionals to identify which methods best match a person’s goals, needs, and preferences. She adapts the work as understanding deepens.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit therapy around work, family, or mobility needs. These options allow consistent access to support and let clients choose the format that feels most comfortable for them.
